About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-10S
Dial in the forward stop on site without swapping cylinders: the MICJ40X160-10S uses an external screw to shorten the extend end position by up to 10 mm, giving a usable forward range of 150-160 mm while retract remains full. This double-acting, round-body stainless steel mini cylinder pairs that settable extend stroke with an adjustable air cushion at both ends, soaking up high-speed shock so you control both the impact and the position.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown. Because this SKU carries the -S suffix, it includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Note that Ø40 is a non-ISO-6432 round-body size, and the 1/4" port feeds the 16 mm rod with its M12x1.25 male thread.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø40 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 kgf |
MIJ / MICJ are double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).

Where the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-10S Is Used
Heavy Carton Diversion
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 10 mm extend stop to tune the exact contact point and the air cushion to absorb shock.
Component Press Fit
Presses bearings or pins with a settable 150-160 mm forward position, relying on the 1/4" port and 16 mm rod for stable force transfer.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-10S the Right Cylinder?
The 10 mm extend stop plus dual adjustable air cushions are ideal for fast, repetitive moves where you must tune the exact forward impact and end position. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cushion only decelerates near the end. The piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-10S FAQ
This double-acting cylinder pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical max force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm piston rod with an M12x1.25 male thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, while the adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to absorb high-speed shock. The -S suffix means it has a magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates and the screw sets the end position; neither acts as a mid-stroke lock, so the piston drifts on air loss and you need an external rod lock to hold a load.
